He can't break through

His thoughts are so scattered

His brain cannot handle any more

He doesn't know if he's been distracted

From his mental illnesses

Or if he's actually getting better

One moment he's on top of the world

Ready for each day

Motivated

And energized

The next

He's isolating himself

He can hardly stand any irritation

He wants to scream so hard his throat burns

He doesn't know which way is up

Or which way is down

Instead he's running around in circles

So lost

Deeply confused

He's trapped behind some barrier

Unable to be connect to the world

He wants to smash it

But he can't

He doesn't know why

He just can't reach through

No matter how hard he tries

Leaving him right back here

Scattered

And drained
